PAX Sneak Peek!


(Ashog) #121

I personally am not particularly interested in attachements, but rather cosmetics and voicepaks.

But if I had to choose one weapon attachment that I would immediately pay money for - it would be an attachment that makes weapon model invisible or hides weapon model. That would be an instant buy.

MMO is just a generic term for online play. It does have certain connotations. PS2 is better labeled a mmorpg-fps.

But what upgr(en)ades or side-gr(en)ades to you want, Ashog? Hmm? :penguin:


(Ashog) #124

I don’t need any apart from gr(en)ades :slight_smile:

MMOFPS means 10,000 slots servers, not 16 slot servers and matchmaking.

This is how Toomic always looks in my head (old good “can’t unsee”) :slight_smile:

[QUOTE=Anti;466841]We share the concerns you have on this stuff and plan to tread very carefully. In fact we’ve not really settled on a design for attachments at all yet, which is why we have not mentioned them, we just know we’d like to do them at some point.

Any feedback and thoughts you folks have on attachment systems you’ve used and liked in the past would be good to hear. As always we are tending towards side grades, not upgrades.[/QUOTE]

What types of upgrades were you specifically thinking when using the term “side grade?”. I don’t think attachments are bad really as long as you don’t go overboard. A nice set of different scope sights would be great, and having very small modifiers would be fine as long as it doesn’t lead a significant “best setup” over default. Small tweaks for balanced stylized play, ex. 5% speed for reduced ammo capacity, etc is not game breaking. In most cases people just want to pimp out their gun really if all else fails.

well we have seen what happened in brink all in competition used the same weapon and kit (60 bullets instead of 30 because only way to kill 2 persons)
its in every game the same their will the one weapon for each class which is best
thats why i still say many weapons are useless
and perks are bull****.CoD uses it and now everybody have to use it? if i play football i play it not to get after every match new shoes or smth like this i play it for competiton and fun
look on quake 3: 1 weapon for every role and still the best weaponbalance and the best arena shooter (for many the best shooter of all time)
you simply dont need more

I don’t see how the failure in other games proves anything? This isn’t CoD, Brink, BF, etc. Why not just have identical weapons for every character and play it safe too? Remember that everything in DB will have continuous patch support and something like weapon attachments can be done better than ever before if we help give suggestions on how to do it better.


(attack) #130

Well if it would be so easy why no other game have done it?
dont get me wrong i know there must smth ingame whith SD can get money :).
i could like a rotation system to try out characters 2 weeks for free etc

Maybe im too oldschool :slight_smile:

Most games don’t take attachments seriously, but there are those that do. The only reason bad attachments are bad are because they were never trying to be good to begin with. Most times they are just included as a gimmicky feature to meet an expectation, it’s just that simple. All an attachment does is allow someone to vary the stats of a weapon (usually with a penalty), which if balanced well really doesn’t do anything bad to the game. Don’t use the term “old school” when your just afraid of attempting to improve something that was done poorly before lol…


(Nail) #133

I’d love to see side grades like different sight options, those are preference over game
changing


(nailzor) #134

Keep in mind this is ^^ the “nail” on forums, not real nail. Have to throw that out there. Do not get confused - my opinions remain :wink:

You mean Brink-style; accents from all over the world? I’d totally love it. I’d also love a huge variety of specifically british and irish accents, even though I wouldn’t understand half of what they are saying. But those accents just sound too funny. I really learned to love british English and all it’s accents. I could listen to it all day.

And since we are at it; minute 3:50-5:10*

*I’d also perefer a very limited amount of attachements, EVEN THOUGH I had/have a hard time with many of Extraction’s weapons. But I really appreciate the challenge to finally master them: it’s like Cowboy and wild horse. Thers’s no point in riding a Rodeo when your horse has neither temperament, nor personality.
It absolutelly doesn’t even matter if those attachements are cheap(picing), or quickly unlockable, they should be, under every circumstances, kept to a bare minimum(except for skins ofc).


PS: I think the Brit is getting it wrong at 13:40, when he’s saying, SD’s/Nexon’s new title is called “Containment”, or have we missed something again? :wink:

Cant say if it’s like Brink, didnt play it. But I think that it would fit in Extraction :slight_smile:
Would be cool to have a nigerian warlord :smiley:

Oh, that was pretty major in BRINK, just look at some vids. So your(our) wish will most certainly be granted :slight_smile:
